Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. Modesty.
The logic used here is:
Allow : Forbid
Forbid means to refuse to allow. Thus, forbid is the opposite of to allow.
Similarly;
Bragging : ?
Bragging means excessively proud and boastful talk about one's achievements or possessions.
The opposite of bragging means modesty which means the quality or state of being unassuming in the estimation of one's abilities.
Hence, Modesty is the correct answer.
